Today, it’s well articulated that if not for the great Sierra Nevada California would’ve been a desert like its desolated neighbor, Nevada barren and utterly lifeless
No doubt the towering Tibetan-Qinghai High Plateau provides both stunning beauty and great nurturing to the heavenly Sichuan Basin Melting snow keeps sending delicious water down all year long and tall mountains block harsh winds from reaching the tenderness of the basin
Masculinity is generous by nature Nountains empty themselves to enrich the land below Every flower of astonishing beauty bears the sacrifice of an exposed rock in the chest of a tall mountain
In the warm embrace of the great basin We must learn to express my great gratitude to the range of great mountains for love should never be taken for granted

The lips of the great basin have memories all the nerves seem to be concentrated here The feeling of the entire land intensifies here desire is heightened and clutches a wide territory
Big snow comes down to bury everything A huge disaster in many other regions, but not here This is the perfect time for this precious spot to shine with great colors of its magic and charm Such great beauty can’t be duplicated anywhere else in the entire universe
Oh, can you smell the fragrance in the air? An intoxicating sensation permeates everywhere Plants, flowers, even bushes, anything that’s alive becomes exuberant, upright, and awe-inspiring The force of life simply refuses to become subtle
It’s such a great pleasure to be enthralled at such a place The great lips open and close at ease, in great harmony Even under heavy breath coming out is for the purpose of going in deeper, to take in all the harmony and fragrance
